InterContinental Hotels Group has expanded its portfolio of hotels in India with the opening of the 200-room Crowne Plaza Ahmedabad City Centre. Located in the largest city in western Indian state Gujarat, Crowne Plaza Ahmedabad City Centre is located a 30-minute drive from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport.

A host of business facilities are available at the hotel, including a business centre and a banquet space for conferences, meetings and events. Guests can also enjoy the hotel’s spa, swimming pool or fitness centre. The property is in proximity to key city attractions such as the Kankaria Lake – the largest lake in Ahmedabad; the Sidi Bashir Mosque, otherwise known as the Shaking Minarets due to its unique edifice; and the seven-storey step well and an architectural wonder, Dada-hari-ni-Vav.

Pascal Gauvin, chief operating officer, India, Middle East and Africa, IHG, said, “IHG has been in India for nearly 50 years and we have always been committed to growing in the market. We are very pleased to welcome Crowne Plaza Ahmedabad City Centre into our system and we look forward to delivering great experiences to our guests at the hotel. It is a privilege to be associated with Shiva Group in Ahmedabad.”
